Rauw Alejandro Addresses His Breakup With Rosalía On The Emotional New Song ‘Hayami Hana’

by

Last month, it was reported that Rosalía and Rauw Alejandro, who got engaged in March, broke up. Alejandro is now back with a song called “Hayami Hana,” which seems to very obviously be about Rosalía.

“And I don’t blame you, the life we lead is not for everyone / The press, social media, group pressures,” he raps (as translated by Genius). “Long distance is tougher, it’s easier if we’re close / We work non-stop, but to what extent?”

He also confronts the rumors of infidelity head-on: “I am a lot of things, but not a cheater / She always had my phone’s password.” He previously addressed it in an Instagram Story, writing (in Spanish), “There are thousands of problems that can cause a breakup, but in our case, it was not because of third parties or infidelity.”

It was also reported last month that Alejandro is dating Camila Cabello, just days after the breakup was revealed.

Rosalía acknowledged the breakup by writing on an Instagram Story (translated via ChatGPT), “I love, respect, and admire Raul very much. I don’t pay attention to the gossip; we know what we’ve lived through. This moment is not easy, so thanks to everyone for understanding and respecting it.”

Rauw Alejandro And Ivy Queen Are Spending The Summer ‘Celebrando’ On Their New Collab

by

Rauw Alejandro is turning up the heat. Tonight (July 7), the Puerto Rican hitmaker has dropped his hotly-anticipated fourth studio album, Playa Saturno.

On the album, Alejandro delivers a series of sounds designed to encapsulate the feeling of summer, transporting us to a reggaeton beach party on the mythical Playa Saturno, which translates to “Saturn Beach.” He pays homages to traditional reggaeton music throughout, but one song that sticks out is “Celebrando,” — a collaboration with reggaeton veteran Ivy Queen.

On “Celebrando,” Alejandro delivers a catchy, sing-songy hook and opening verse, over a rattling drum loop.

Ivy then pops in, continuing to deliver scorching bars more than three decades into her career.

In an interview with Billboard, Ivy noted that while she’s still continuing to rise and collaborate with newer Latin music artists, she wants to continue to make music on her own terms, and not follow industry trends. This, after all, is how she truly remains empowered.

“You earn your own money; you earn your own spot, she said. “I try to maintain my essence, of what reggaetón was, and what reggaetón is. I don’t want to be a puppet.”

You can listen to “Celebrando” above.

Playa Saturno is out now via Sony. Find more information here.

Rauw Alejandro And Bizarrap Share ‘Baby Hello’ After Teasing The New Song In The ‘Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 56’ Video

by

Earlier this week, Rauw Alejandro and Bizarrap shared “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 56.” “God has never failed me, he has listened to my prayers,” Bizarrap wrote on his Instagram Story in Spanish, translated to English. “What a joy it gives me to finally release music together brother.”

Already, Alejandro is dropping new material. “Baby Hello” with Bizarrap is out today, and it’s taken from Alejandro’s highly anticipated forthcoming album Playa Saturno. It was teased at the end of the “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 56” video, so it’s not that much of a surprise to fans.

Alejandro has been the center of attention since he teamed up with world-dominating pop star Rosalía for the three-track project RR. Before it was even released, the two got engaged and became one of the most beloved celebrity couples. The press release said that RR “sonically chronicles their journey as a couple, tracing a roadmap of their relationship from the past to the present with hints at what the future holds. Their voices complement one another as they lock into a creative chemistry only partners could share. At the same time, their respective styles fuse into a fresh and fiery vision unlike anything else either of these trailblazers have crafted thus far.”

How Long Have Rosalía And Rauw Alejandro Been Dating?

No, it is not Valentine’s Day, but love is still in the air, or at least for international music stars Rosalía and Rauw Alejandro. Yesterday, the pair dropped the official visual for their latest single, “Beso,” off their collaborative EP RR. After fans eagerly tuned into the video, they were shocked to find out that the musicians had taken their relationship to the next level.

As the couple serenaded each other with sweet nothings, eventually, the singer flashed her hand to the camera to reveal that her ring finger was no longer bare. Immediately after seeing Rosalía’s gleaming diamond ring, fans flooded social media to congratulate the pair on their pending nuptials. While others were confused by the news, leaving them to ask how long have Rosalía and Rauw Alejandro been dating?

It is difficult to pinpoint an exact date, but according to People, the couple was first seen holding hands in August of 2021, thanks to the paparazzi catching them outside of The Nice Guy restaurant in West Hollywood. Overwhelmed by the online speculation, on the singer’s birthday in September of that same year, the couple formally announced they were indeed an item.

By November, the couple was still going strong, sharing their baecation to Mexico with fans. Later that month, the pair accompanied each other to the Los40 Music Awards in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, posing for the cameras upon their arrival.

Then the couple dialed it up a notch by the end of the month, discussing their relationship with the media. Rauw spoke with Entertainment Tonight, while Rosalía shared her thoughts with Rolling Stone.

After that, the couple remained relatively quiet outside of a few social media posts here and there. But in January 2022, when Rauw was being interviewed by Rolling Stone, he let the publication know that they were still madly in love. By April of that year, the pair had matching tattoos. Rauw has Rosalía’s tattooed on his belly, while Rosalía has Rauw’s initials tattooed on the bottom of her left foot.

The pair have not hidden their budding relationship in any way. Often posting under each other’s posts on social media, sharing flicks of their romantic getaways together, and walking several other red carpets together, including both the legacy and Latin Grammys.
